I’m pretty sure Linus’ prayer and his traditional (read: non-black armband) retelling of Thanksgiving history at 13 minutes into the above video is considered a hate crime today in large swatches of Berkeley and San Francisco. As with ABC’s concurrentSchoolhouseRock series, it’s another reminder that as late as the 1970s, when this cartoon was created for the CBS network, liberalism was still compatible with traditional American history, before the excoriating arrival of Political Correctness in the following decade.

And that is in a nutshell why I am a fervent anti-Democrat. I basically had it intuitively figured out by 1994, and by 2002 it was set in concrete.

I am not sure classic liberalism of the robust American kind will prevail. I do know it can do damage on its way out the door, and should, if that is its only allowable option in Barack Obama’s America.
